On Linux, the limit is 15 chars, which is conveniently (and unhelpfully) filled by "JavaScriptCore:". Shorten the prefix to "JSC:".

Shorten JSC thread names

This patch seems reasonable, but can't be applied now. Can you please revise and upload a rebased version?

Same as with my other patches from 2014, not getting any replies for two years made it very clear the Webkit project does not want outside contributions.
